Radio version is called "Sensual Seduction", first single off his new album Ego Trippin'. The song sounds nothing like Snoop Dogg, but I love it! Not sure if it will be such a big hit with rap stations, but who cares. The video is hilarious too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKz-RXSeIYA

Krusty the Klown agitatedly puffing on a cigarette after showing a European equivalent cartoon of "Itchy & Scratchy":
"What the hell was that!?"
Seriously. I understand the video is paying homage to Prince, Rick James, Parliament, et al., but as far as the song goes, T-Pain is not some kind of revolutionary genius. He uses Vocoder/overdriven Autotune is a gimmicky crutch. I don't know why people haven't called bulls*** on him by now and certainly can't understand why Snoop is taking musical cues from him. I mean, this is Snoop Dogg singing, but adding in a rapped bridge like he's the guest rapper on his own song. And for as much as he wanted to drive home his gangsta image all over again on the last two albums, I don't understand why he's going even farther back to the left now, taking musical inspiration from the lite, disco-R&B of the late '70's & early '80's that he seemed to be rebelling against lately.

I enjoy this song a lot. I hear it a lot on my local Urban AC station WBLS. Snoop getting play on Urban AC. LOL! We all have to get old sometime. ;D

I actually like the fact that this song shows that with a vocoder, even Snoop can sing better than T-Pain.

Yeah, Snoop actually has a really good voice. This song is just eh to me right now, though. LOL at the video.

Hearing that Snoop Dogg actually sang in the song intrigued me to give it a listen just now. Not bad at all.

This is turning out to be a huge hit for Snoop. I've replayed this so many times on my iPhone. He should make it to pop!
